Topic > Critical analysis of William Bennett's critique of...

His points are strong, but on almost every point he has no proof that what he is saying is true. For the rare points that have support, leave the question “how accurate is the source?” For example, he claims that counselors report that teenagers think it is "cool" to be homosexual, but what do counselors say this? The statement “consultants report” is an absolute statement and not all consultants agree with that statement. The way he concludes this section on schools is also unsupported; he says the schools are to blame. It should publish statistics on the number of homosexual students for the change in sex education. The statistics would make his point more credible and greatly improve his effectiveness. William leaves his readers with another question: “is what he says a fact or is it just his opinion?” The majority of this article represents the opinion of William Bennett only. His opinion brings up some interesting points, but all of this means nothing without support. Even with the poor fluency and his inability to understand his opponent, the article could have been effective if he had backed up all of his claims. Support is the most important part of a topic. William's inability to argue his points is the main reason for his debate
